I find the shimmer quilling paper hard to work with - my usual glue doesn't seem to hold the coils as well, but I knew I wanted to use it because of the shimmer in Barb's picture. Each coil was rolled, shaped, and glued, and then I used coins to hold each coil while it dried. Luckily the edges of the paper aren't coated with the same shimmer material, so gluing the finished coils was not a problem. There were definitely some interesting words used during the initial phases of this project, though.

So that's 3 of Barb's fabulous photos I've used as inspiration so far...two of them I've actually made more than one card. Still have to upload/edit those...and get my ideas for the other two down on paper. I am soooo loving this challenge :)

EEEK!!! love this! I've never tried quilling...there would be some 'interesting' words used during the process for me too! lol This card is so beautiful...you've paid attention to every detail. This might be my fave of the cards I've seen you make so far. Thanks so much for linking up again...i love your takes on this challenge! xx
